There is also an all-year-round overnight train (with sleeping compartments) between Zagreb and Split (6 hours). (updated Sep 2016 | ) As for the local destinations, then despite of introduction of new “tilting trains” (up to 160 Km/h) connecting Zagreb with Split and other major cities in Croatia such as Varaždin, Osijek and Požega. Trains are not everywhere fast in the country. A journey to Split takes approx. 6 hours while by bus it takes about 5 hours, while other destinations along the coast practically are not reachable by train. Tourists coming from or going to neighbouring capitals should note the following EuroCity and InterCity as well as EuroNight railway lines: EC "Mimara": Frankfurt - Heidelberg - Stuttgart - Munich - Salzburg - Ljubljana - Zagreb Glavni kolodvor - Zagreb's Main Railway Station EC "Croatia": Vienna - Maribor - Zagreb, also by EuroNight train IC "Kvarner": Budapest - Zagreb B "Lisinski": Munich - Salzburg - Ljubljana - Zagreb B "Zürichsee": Zurich - Innsbruck - Ljubljana - Zagreb - Belgrade, also by EuroNight train EC "Sava": Munich - Salzburg - Ljubljana - Zagreb - Belgrade The most of the services are operated by the Croatian Railways. EuroNight trains can be booked via ÖBB (Austrian railways), DB (German railways) or SBB (Swiss railways), or any other ticketing agency by phone. By car Almost all highways (motorway; autocesta in Croatian) in Croatia start or end in Zagreb. Travellers from Vienna can pass by Graz and Maribor and then take the A2 highway upon entering Croatia. Mind the toll in Slovenia. Travellers from Budapest can pass by Székesfehérvár and then use the Croatian A4 motorway. It also connects Varaždin. You will have to pay toll from shortly after entering Croatia until shortly before reaching Zagreb. Travellers heading from Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece and Turkey can use the Croatian A3 motorway to reach Zagreb. Travellers heading from Ljubljana can use the A3. Travellers coming from the west - Italy, as well as Rijeka or Istria - can use the A7 motorway (near and bypassing Rijeka), A6 motorway (Rijeka-Bosiljevo) and then the A1 (Bosiljevo-Zagreb). Those travelling from Italy can bypass the expensive motorway toll in Slovenia by using the state route SS21 through Trieste, route E61 through Slovenia (in a bad shape) and then A7 south to Rijeka, then Rijeka bypass, then A6 east to Bosiljevo and A1 northeast to Zagreb. Travellers heading from the south - Dalmatian coast (Zadar, Split, Dubrovnik, ...) or from Montenegro - can use the A1 highway, often combined with the state roads D8 (by the coastline) and D1 (through the hinterland). To use highways in Croatia you must pay a toll either in Croatian national currency, the Kuna, or in Euro. One may also pay by credit card- American Express, Diners, MasterCard, Maestro or Visa cards. A third option is to use the HAC Smart Card, which can reduce the cost of travelling on the Croatian highways by 10-25%. It is issued by Hrvatske Autoceste (http://www.hac.hr/), but pays off only if travelling more than 500 km (that's a return trip Zagreb-Zadar or Zagreb-Serbia) or 250 km for a seasonal Smart Card (a return trip Zagreb-Rijeka or two return trips to Zagreb from Austrian border). You can find a toll calculator here (http://www.hac.hr/index.p hp?task=aut&lng=en) (click Calculator on the left navigation bar). Get around Zagreb has a well-developed and efficient public transport system that consists of trams, buses and trains. Tram The tram network (route map (http://ww w.zet.hr/UserDocsImages/Prilozi/PDF/Tr amvajska%20mre%C5%BEa%20-%201 4.9.2016..pdf)) operates 24 hours a day - from 4AM to 12AM there are 15 "day- time lines" (tram lines 1-9, 11-15 and 17), and from 12AM to 4AM there are 4 "night" lines (tram lines 31-34) which cover most of the day-time lines on a reduced (around 30-40 minute) frequency.

  • Simulation of Railway Operation on the Line from Zagreb to Karlovac by OPENTRACK
    Simulation of Railway Operation on the line from Zagreb to Karlovac by OPENTRACK Hrvoje HARAMINA, University of Zagreb, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences Andreas SCHÖBEL, Vienna University of Technology, Institute of Transportation, Research Centre for Railway Engineering Tihomir PLEŠA, University of Zagreb, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences Abstract The application of simulation software in the planning process is state-of-the-art at many railway infrastructure managers. On the one hand software tools are used to point out the demand for new infrastructure and on the other hand they are used to optimize traffic flow in railway networks by support of the time table related processes. This paper deals with the first application of the software tool called OPENTRACK for simulation of railway operation on an existing line in Croatia from Zagreb to Karlovac. Aim of the work was to find out if the actual version of OPENTRACK able to consider the Croatian signalling system. Therefore the capability arises to use it also for other investigations in railway operation. Keywords: railway operation, simulation 1. Introduction The use of computing in railway-engineering is nowadays state-of-the-art. Project planning of train control and signalling technology is assisted by simulation of operation. Simulation allows statements of functionality by scenarios, without the assumption, that an application has to be realised in some location. The importance of simulation is pointed by the fact, that railway-enterprises demand simulation-outputs for new technologies which guarantee the efficiency, performance and utilisability of products. Independently from the used software there are three different types of simulation inputs: railway infrastructure (e.g.

  • Some Experiences in Analytical Relief Shading
    SOME EXPERIENCES IN ANALYTICAL RELIEF SHADING Dražen Tutić 1 Miljenko Lapaine 2 Vesna Poslončec-Petrić 3 University of Zagreb, Kačićeva 26, 10000 Zagreb (Croatia) [email protected] 1; [email protected] 2; [email protected] 3 Abstract: Relief shading gives to a map not only aesthetic dimension, but it can also be used as information supplement in the map. An overview of existing shades of the mountain Medvednica near Zagreb, Croatia is given. Possibilities in modifying analytical shades and results in aesthetic dimension and perception of the relief are explored. INTRODUCTION Only few capital cities have the advantage of being so close to nature parks like Zagreb to the Medvednica Mountain does. Medvednica's base can be easily reached from different areas of Zagreb by tram or bus, so citizens are traditionally oriented to Medvednica. They are passionate mountaineers; there are 47 mountaineering associations, as well as 8 mountain tenements on Medvednica [URL 1]. They are also very keen on sports: Zagreb organised the FIS World CUP race "Snow Queen Trophy 2006" which gathered around 20 000 spectators. Knowing all that, we can conclude that no Croatian mountain has so many cartographic representations like Medvednica does. We picked three maps for illustration from a variety of existing maps of Medvednica (Fig. 1, 2 and 3). Fig. 1: Part of the map of Sljeme (top of the Medvednica Mountain) (Lovrić, 1993) TUTIĆ, LAPAINE, POSLONČEC-PETRIĆ: SOME EXPERIENCES IN ANALYTICAL RELIEF SHADING Fig. 2: Panoramic view of Medvednica and Zagreb [URL 2] Fig. 3: Bicycle map of the Medvednica Mountain [URL 2] TUTIĆ, LAPAINE, POSLONČEC-PETRIĆ: SOME EXPERIENCES IN ANALYTICAL RELIEF SHADING The main point of our interest on these maps is displaying relief by shading.
